Answer:

a. -24

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by 6 ...

2/3(1/2x+12)=1/2(1/3x+14)-3

4(1/2x +12) = 3(1/3x +14) -18 . . . . . . multiply by 6

2x +48 = x +42 -18 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .eliminate parentheses

x = 24 -48 = -24 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify and subtract (x+48)

Clare is cycling at a speed of 12 miles per hour. If she starts at a position chosen as zero, what will her position be after 45

mash [69]

45 minutes is 3/4 of an hour, so find 3/4 of 12.
Divide 12 by 4 to get 1/4 of 12. That is 3.
3/4 is 3 of those, so multiply it by 3 to get 9.
So, she will have biked 9 miles.
Hope this helps!

Given that r||s and q is a transversal, we know that by the [________]. corresponding angles theorem alternate interior angles t

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

alternate interior angles theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

The alternate interior angles theorem states that when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the resulting angles produced are a pair of congruent alternate interior angles.

Given the image attached below, both line k and line l are parallel to each other and also, line t is the transversal, therefore the resulting congruent alternate interior angles produced are:

∠ 4 ≅ ∠6, ∠1 ≅ ∠7
